Exploring subdomain variation in biomedical language
(2011-05-27)
AbstractApplications of Natural Language Processing (NLP) technology to biomedical texts have generated significant interest in recent years. In this paper we identify and investigate the phenomenon of linguistic subdomain ...
A comparison and user-based evaluation of models of textual information structure in the context of cancer risk assessment
(2011-03-08)
Abstract Background Many practical tasks in biomedicine require accessing specific types of information in scientific literature; e.g. information about the results or conclusions of the study in question. Several schemes ...
Institutional Public Private Partnerships for Core Health Services: Evidence from Italy.
(2011-04-19)
Abstract Background Public-private partnerships (PPPs) are potential instruments to enable private collaboration in the health sector. Despite theoretical debate, empirical analyses have thus far tended to focus on the ...
Homeostasis and volume regulation in the Plasmodium falciparum infected red blood cell
(University of CambridgeDepartment of Chemical Engineering and BiotechnologyDepartment of Physiology, Development and Neuroscience, 2011-06-07)
The thesis reports on the application of advanced microanalytical techniques to answer a fundamental open question on the homeostasis of Plasmodium falciparum infected red blood cells, namely how infected cells retain their ...
Computer code in support of the manuscript "Phase field model for coupled displacive and diffusive microstructural processes under thermal loading"
(2011)
Supporting material for the article: Maraldi, M., Wells, G. N., and Molari, L. (2011). Phase field model for coupled displacive and diffusive microstructural processes under thermal loading. Journal of the Mechanics and ...
Experimental characterisation of bubbly flow using MRI
(University of CambridgeDepartment of Chemical Engineering and BiotechnologyTrinity College, 2011-11-08)
This thesis describes the first application of ultra-fast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) towards the characterisation of bubbly flow systems. The principle goal of this study is to provide a hydrodynamic characterisation ...
Distributed virtual environment scalability and security
(University of CambridgeFaculty of Computer Science and TechnologyComputer LaboratoryMicrosoft Research Cambridge, 2011-11-08)
Distributed virtual environments (DVEs) have been an active area of research and engineering for more than 20 years. The most widely deployed DVEs are network games such as Quake, Halo, and World of Warcraft (WoW), with ...
Statistical models for noise-robust speech recognition
(University of CambridgeDepartment of Engineering, 2011-11-08)
A standard way of improving the robustness of speech recognition systems to noise is model compensation. This replaces a speech recogniser's distributions over clean speech by ones over noise-corrupted speech. For each ...
Jetting, In-Nozzle Meniscus Motion and Nozzle-Plate Flooding in an Industrial Drop-on-Demand Print Head
(Proc 27th Int. Conf. on Digital Printing Technologies, NIP27, 2011)
The state of the ink film at and near the nozzles of a drop-ondemand(DoD) print head during jetting has a direct impact on
printing performance and reliability. We have developed highspeed imaging apparatus and analytical ...
The effect of inkjet ink composition on rheology and jetting behaviour
(Proc 27th Int. Conf. on Digital Printing Technologies, 2011)
This work presents recent results on the way linear and non linear viscoelastic properties of the fluids affect the jetting
mechanism. Recent progress on quantitative characterising both high frequency linear (LVE) and ...
